Lux isn't in the lineup for Game 2 of the World Series against the Yankees on Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Yankees will send southpaw Carlos Rodon to the mound to begin Game 2, so the lefty-hitting Lux will grab a seat on the bench while Enrique Hernandez fills in at the keystone and bats sixth.

Lux (hip) will start at second base and bat eighth Friday in Game 1 of the World Series against the Yankees, Travis Sawchik of theScore.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lux didn't start Game 6 of the NLCS as he dealt with continued soreness with his hip, but with extra rest in between series he's ready to give it a go. The 26-year-old Lux is 5-for-24 with one home run during the 2024 postseason.

Lux (hip) is absent from the Dodgers' lineup for Game 6 of the NLCS against the Mets on Sunday, Noah Camras of DodgersNation.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Manager Dave Roberts said Sunday that Lux is sitting not just because of the Mets sending southpaw Sean Manaea to the mound, but also because Lux is still not fully recovered from a hip flexor injury, per Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times. Chris Taylor will start at second base for Game 6 of the NLCS, but Lux will be available off the bench.

Lux is absent from the lineup Thursday for Game 4 of the NLCS versus the Mets, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's southpaw Jose Quintana on the bump for the Mets, so the left-handed-hitting Lux will begin the contest on the bench. Chris Taylor is occupying second base and batting ninth for the Dodgers.

Lux (hip) will start at second base and bat sixth Wednesday in Game 3 of the NLCS versus the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Lux had to depart Game 1 and didn't play Game 2 because of hip flexor tightness, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go Wednesday. The 26-year-old is 5-for-19 with one home run in six contests so far this postseason.

Manager Dave Roberts said he expects Lux (hip) to be back in the lineup Wednesday for Game 3 of the NLCS, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lux was absent from the lineup in Game 2 after being removed from Game 1 due to hip-flexor tightness. The second baseman is 5-for-19 with a home run and two walks in the 2024 postseason. If he is back in the lineup as expected Wednesday, he will be facing Mets' right-handed starter Luis Severino.

Lux (hip) is not in the lineup Monday for Game 2 of the NLCS against the Mets, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lux had to be lifted from Game 1 in the seventh inning due to hip flexor tightness. He will be available to pinch hit in Game 2 but will not be used on defense. The hope is that Lux will be ready to return to the lineup for Game 3 on Wednesday after two days of rest. Enrique Hernandez is at second base in Game 2.

Lux was removed from Sunday's Game 1 of the NLCS due to hip flexor tightness, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lux talked to a trainer after grounding out in the sixth inning and didn't take the field to start the seventh frame. It's now known he's battling hip flexor soreness, which likely means he'll be tabbed day-to-day. Regardless of his health, the lefty-hitting Lux isn't likely to be in the lineup for Game 2 against southpaw Sean Manaea and the Mets.

Lux (undisclosed) was seen talking to a trainer in the dugout after grounding out in the sixth inning of Sunday's Game 1 of the NLCS before exiting the game in the top of the seventh, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear why Lux was lifted from the contest, but his conversations with a trainer could indicate it's injury-related. Kevin Kiermaier replaced Lux in the lineup and stepped into center field while Enrique Hernandez shifted to second base. Lux went 0-for-1 with a walk and a run scored before leaving.

Lux is not in Sunday's lineup against the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Lux had started seven games in a row coming into this one, and his last absence was with a lefty on the hill for the opponent, so it's surprising to see him sitting Sunday against righty Ryan Feltner. Chris Taylor, who is hitting .471 over his last 17 at-bats, draws the start at the keystone.
